WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF CoQ10 PERFORMANCE™ IN ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE?

CoEnzyme Q10(CoQ10)

CoQ10 is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like compound that research has shown to have many health benefits. CoEnzyme Q10(CoQ10) has long been known for its health benefits, specifically its cardiovascular benefits. It is produced in high concentrations inside the mitochondria of cells, where ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is produced. ATP gives all the body’s cells energy. The cardiovascular system and the heart have high concentrations of CoEnzyme Q10 (CoQ10) since it never takes a break from pumping. Research shows CoEnzyme Q10 (CoQ10)  can benefit cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, heart attacks, heart failure, angina and benefit overall heart health. 

Anyone taking a statin cholesterol lowering agent should take CoQ10 since statins lower Coq10 production in the body.

Athletes can also benefit from CoQ10 as it boosts energy production and aid in endurance.A study of  athletes who took Coq10 had increased power production compared to a placebo group.1.As we age, mitochondria production leads to less CoQ10. Supplementing CoQ10  makes up for less mitochondria due to the aging process.

Athletes that have over trained have oxidative stress in the form of free radicals that damage cell membrane. The antioxidant effect of CoQ10 would benefit cell protection and help to fight off the excess free radicals.

These properties make it helpful in the preservation of cells and the prevention and aid of some chronic diseases.  

CoQ10 has been shown to help improve blood sugar regulation.


L-carnitine 

L-Carnitine is an amino acid that  transports oxygen and fatty acids to cells and CoQ10 converts them into energy. It also recycles CoQ10 so cells are replenished with energy. 

It performs three very important functions that enhance athletic performance:

  1. L-carnitine is THE nutrient, the carrier so to speak, that shuttles fatty acids from the blood into the mitochondria, the energy producing centers in the cells, so that the fatty acids can be used as energy. If you want to use fat as a fuel as efficiently and effectively as possible, you need l-carnitine.
  2. L-carnitine also helps improve endurance by inhibiting the build-up of lactic acid, one of the primary causes of fatigue.
  3. L-carnitine has also been shown to reduce the accumulation of metabolic wastes during exercise. This helps increase workload output during exercise and enhances recovery post-exercise.


Vitamin E

Vitamin E works as an antioxidant in athletic performance and may help to prevent some of the oxidative damage that may occur from exercise. Athletes need a strong immune system and Vitamin E promotes a healthy immune system which is important because dips in immune function may occur right after exercise. CoQ10 works to boost Vitamin E production to clean up disease-causing free radicals. A study showed CoQ10 combined with Vitamin E decreased atherosclerosis and inflammation in baboons and mice.1.

Are you at risk for CoQ10 Deficiency?

Main contributors to COQ10 Deficiency:

  • Athletic overtraining
  • Genetic defects in CoQ10 synthesis or utilization
  • Increased demands by tissues as a consequence of disease
  • Mitochondrial diseases
  • Nutritional deficiencies, such as vitamin B6 deficiency
  • Oxidative stress due to aging
  • Side effects of statin treatments

There is extensive research and clinical trials that express these possible health benefits;  in our clinical practices we at SRPnano can say we’ve seen most of these benefits in patients.

How SRPnano’s formula is superior…

COQ10 PERFORMANCE™ is a blend of CoQ10, L-carnitine, and vitamin E. CoQ10 boosts cellular energy levels with the added boost of L-carnitine which delivers oxygen and fatty acids which  CoQ10 uses to convert to energy. The strong antioxidant properties of CoQ10, L-carnitine, and vitamin E are amplified when paired together. They work to clean up free radicals and prevent oxidative stress for better recovery and overall health.

 *CoQ10 may interact with blood thinners and insulin medications. Consult with your healthcare provider to see if CoQ10 is right for you.*
